Thank you to everyone who supported us at the Magic of Blossom event this afternoon.

Looking for something to do this afternoon? We’ll be playing at the Magic of Blossom event at Holy Trinity Parish Church at 2.30 - free to attend with lots of nature crafts to try out

A huge thank you everyone who came came along to support our concert yesterday - we had a wonderful time.

All set for our first evening concert since lockdown 😀

New instrument for Christmas? 🎶 Put it to good use and join us for a new season of music this January. No audition required - all ages welcome - Free trial rehearsal - contact us for more information. Weekly rehearsals Wednesday 7-9pm at Streetly Methodist Church.

A massive thank you to everyone who supported us at The Streetly Christmas Tree Festival yesterday. The audience participation was particularly impressive!!

Our weekly rehearsals start up again on Wednesday 14th September. Please share with anyone who plays an orchestral instrument who may like to join us 🎶

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the All Saints Parish Church, Streetly Jubilee Flower Festival this afternoon. It was lovely to see you!!

Looking forward to performing at the Streetly Flower Festival on Sunday - see you at 2pm

Just a quick reminder that our rehearsals start again today following the half term break. We’ll be back at Streetly Methodist Church from 7pm, pop in and say hello 👋

We’re taking a break for the next couple of weeks due to half term. Next rehearsal will be Wednesday 2nd March. Get in touch if you fancy joining us…

Play an orchestral instrument? Fancy giving it a blast? Join us for an open rehearsal at All Saints Church, Streetly on Wednesday evening, or contact us for information about how to join. All ages and abilities welcome.

It’s hard to believe this is actually going to happen, but after 18 months of waiting we’re actually going to be starting rehearsals again from this evening. 7-9pm Streetly Methodist Church.

We may not have been able to perform this Christmas, but that hasn’t stopped our incredibly talented conductor Ed Harrisson sharing some festive spirit! Take a look at his virtual multitrack orchestra performing one of the pieces he arranged for us: youtu.be/dxFp_yPK6HY

Ordinarily we would be busy rehearsing for our Christmas Concert right now 🎶 🎄 - little did we know that last years would be our last performance for over a year #sadtimes #StaySafe

Wishing all of our members and friends who are due to receive A-Level results tomorrow the very best of luck!

It’s hard to imagine that we would usually be well into our summer term, fine tuning pieces for the performances ahead. Sadly, as things currently stand it is unlikely that we’ll be able to recommence rehearsals before September and our summer concert is cancelled. Stay safe.

It is with a heavy heart that we have decided that we should pause orchestra rehearsals until (at least) after the Easter break. This is not a decision we have taken lightly, but it feels prudent to do so at this time. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

Quick reminder: there’s no rehearsal this evening due to half term.
